Anne Neuberger, White House deputy national security advisor for cyber and emerging technologies, emphasised the need for clarity in distinguishing between cyberespionage and potential cyberattacks. Her remarks followed a recent advisory from federal agencies warning about Chinese hackers infiltrating US critical infrastructure.
In response to this evolving threat, Neuberger outlined the US government’s approach, which includes adopting cybersecurity regulations similar to the European NIS2 Directive for protecting key sectors and strengthening partnerships and information sharing with foreign allies.
